Sheriff Clarke Calls Out Clinton And Her Party On Racism Hypocrisy

Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke said efforts by Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and her campaign to paint Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump as a racist are “a classic case of the pot calling the kettle black.”

Clark, speaking Saturday on Fox & Friends, said not only does the Democratic Party’s history show its roots are deep in racism, but so does Clinton’s personal history. Clarke noted that Clinton has been awarded Planned Parenthood’s Margaret Sanger Award, named after the group’s founder.

“She (Sanger) was a eugenist who supported the extermination of the black race — she called the black race a ‘weed.’ (Clinton) embraces that award, she embraces the support of an organization … that kills more black babies than any other race,” Clark said.

Clarke said the Democratic Party has a history of opposing advancement for minorities.

“This is a party, the Democrat Party, that stood in the way of the Civil Rights Act in 1964, that stood in the way of Lincoln trying to free the slaves, that embraced and endorsed and voted for Sen. Robert Byrd, a former Klansman, they welcomed him into the party as they did George Wallace.”
